Hi,

... and after 15 records added this way you'll get an x37 error, because your dataset have more than 16 extents.

I wonder - Why is it not possible to add records to the beginning of a data set? Wouldn't it be possible for a sufficiently clever program to place the inserted records into a newly allocated area on disk, and then modify the VTOC to point to that new area first and the old first area next? It might require rewriting a bunch of control blocks, and probably wouldn't work for some kinds of data sets (FBS comes to mind), but isn't it theoretically possible?
